Youth, class and education in urban India: the year that can break or make you
In: Routledge series on urban South Asia, 2
Urban India is undergoing a rapid transformation, which also encompasses the educational sector. Since 1991, this important, new market in private English-medium schools, along with an explosion of private coaching centres, has transformed the lives children and their families, as the attainment of the best education nurtures the aspirations of a growing number of Indian citizens. Set in urban Kerala, the book discusses changing educational landscapes in the South Indian city of Kochi, a local hub for trade, tourism, and cosmopolitan middle-class lifestyles. Based on extensive ethnographic fieldwork, the author examines the way education features as a major way the transformation of the city, and India in general, are experienced and envisaged by upwardly mobile residents. Schooling is shown to play a major role in urban lifestyles, with increased privatisation representing a response to the educational strategies of a growing and heterogeneous middle class, whose educational choices reflect broader projects of class formation within the context of religious and caste diversity particular to the region. This path-breaking new study of a changing Indian middle class and new relationships with educational institutions contributes to the growing body of work on the experiences and meanings of schooling for youths, their parents, and the wider community and thereby adds a unique, anthropologically informed, perspective to South Asian Studies, Urban Studies and the Study of Education. David Sancho holds a British Academy Postdoctoral Fellowship and is currently carrying out research on transnational educational trajectories with Indian-origin pupils in Dubai.
Education and the making of mobile livelihoods: Dubai Indian families' trajectories over time and space
In: Global networks: a journal of transnational affairs, Band 23, Heft 2, S. 332-346
ISSN: 1471-0374
AbstractThis paper examines how Indian migrant families in Dubai actively sustain mobile livelihoods across the Indian Ocean and beyond, paying attention to the role played by education in the unfolding of such migrant lives. This paper aims to nuance the experiences of Gulf migrants that have broadly focused on systemic vulnerabilities produced by the legal, economic and social structures encountered in Gulf destinations. This paper builds on the stories of three families from the southern Indian state of Kerala with diverse mobility trajectories over time and space, which is conceptualized in relation to the practice of specific livelihoods, focusing on the patterns and impacts of mobility at different life stages and across generations. Literature engaging with the migration‐education nexus, which reveals that education is an integral part of mobile livelihoods worldwide, provides an analytical backdrop. The paper shows distinct ways in which education forms a crucial part of complex agendas, informing family migration to and from the Gulf region. Furthermore, it captures how migrants' educational agendas are continuously being adjusted in processes of migration, and how this relates to the ongoing transformation of individual and collective social identities and the remaking of mobile livelihoods.

Indicadores bibliorriétricos utilizados en la evaluación de la ciencia y la tecnología. Revisión bibliográfica
In: Revista española de documentación científica: REDC, Band 13, Heft 3-4, S. 842
ISSN: 1988-4621
Se estudian los artículos aparecidos en la bibliografía referentes a indicadores bibliométricos empleados para evaluar el proceso científico. Se comentan con detalle: los indicadores de la calidad científica (opiniones de expertos); los de la actividad científica (nº y distribución de publicaciones, de productividad de autores, de colaboración en las publicaciones); conexiones entre trabajos y autores científicos (nº de referencias de las publicaciones); impacto de los trabajo, (nº de citas recibidas); impacto de las fuentes (factor de impacto de las revistas, indice de inmediatez, influencia de las revistas); asociaciones temáticas (análisis de citas comunes, análisis de referencias comunes, análisis de palabras comunes). Se hace después un análisis critico de las limitaciones de los anteriores indicadores bibliométricos y se llega a la conclusión de que su uso hay que limitarlo a colectivos homogéneos y emplearlos con mucha cautela.

La gobernabilidad de todo sistema político requiere al menos considerar tres factores: seguridad como condición, institucionalidad como medio y desarrollo como objetivo. En este contexto, la ciberseguridad constituye una condición para permitir que los ciudadanos, las organizaciones e instituciones puedan beneficiarse del uso del ciberespacio como dimensión en la cual las relaciones sociales pueden efectuarse en forma más rápida y económica en comparación con otras formas conocidas de intercambio de información.
